18 Mechanical shutdown When the engine has stopped, turn the key to the ‘Off’ position.
If the engine is not to be used for some time, it is recommended that the sea cock is closed and the battery main switch turned off.
On the engine itself stopping is possible by pressing the black button on the fuel injection pump. If the fuel supply is not shut off by the electrically operated fuel solenoid stopping of the engine can be done this way.
